Replace soda with crystal light iced tea flavor. It's delicious. I was a sodaholic my self but I won't lie I do have a sip here & there but I can live with out it. I hate Gatorade so idk about that. I basically drink crystal light & Water all day. I don't like flavor water. Snapple is also good. We just have to be strong & fight the evil inside us that wants to keep us fat :)

Thanks mamiof3, I put forth a big effort actually a week ago, but today it was nice to hear all the comment. I will be restocking my pantry with crystal lite, and I actually like plain Water, Protein Shakes, and ice pops. Thanks for the reminder.

Try your best to make small changes throughout the day. Try to keep your calories limited(set a goal number and try to keep your intake of calories under that). That way you wont feel so bad if you have a cookie or pop every once and awhile because the other items you had were low calorie. I don't look at the big picture because sometimes it can be overwhelming, small steps eventually get you to your destination.

Is that slow? Lol that is freaking awesome! Doesn't seem slow to me! What do you think is average?

I guess it seems slow to me, because some people are just as far out as I am and have lost more. But I'm glad I'm not losing very fast. My skin doesn't look bad.

I had my surgery 8-21-12. So I went to see my doctor on my 3rd month and was told that I didn't lose enough. Since my surgery i've lost 42lbs. I went back on liquids for a week. Now am eating only chicken, veggies,fruits. I've been looking on here for other stuff I can eat. I am on stage 4 but I'd like to know what others are eating for Breakfast etc. I just started walking and riding my bike because I wasn't feeling well. If someone can send me to the right place for info on this I'd greatly appreciate.

If there's anyone from Modesto,CA that has had the gastric bypass recently I'd like to talk and maybe we can support each other.

I'm gonna add one thing to this thread and then could really careless if I see anything again. I have been on these boards for awhile. Anyone who sees kaylees posts and actually reads them knows she is a no nonsense young woman who is passionate about wls. I think the original poster should have taken all the criticism and suggestions and used them to make better decisions. Lets face it we are all here for a reason and to be frank... We are all or were fat! Stay on the program and work the tool!!! Good luck to you on your journey but to those bashing kaylee aren't you really acting shamefully like you accuse her of doing?

(I love you - have a beautiful day)

@ swillkins...you are the one who must be accountable for what goes in your mouth. There is help out there. I have been sober a number of years. Now I need help with the food. Overrated Anonymous has been a huge help for me. If I don't buy it I can't eat it. The rule in my house is when you leave so does your beer...now that rule now applies to soda.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
